Adobe to remove Kinkos integration from Acrobat

The print industry really didn’t like the move by Adobe to integrate Kinkos into Adobe Reader. The backlash was swift and severe, so now Adobe has decided to drop the integration to keep the printers happy. Good call on their part since, after all, the print industry’s support is what keeps Adobe at the forefront of the digital document space. With technologies like XPS from Microsoft, it’s gonna be harder for Adobe to keep a lock on the space and pull stunts like this. Competition == good.
